Morris Norvin
Partner, Artist and Instructor
www.3DJunkArt.comMorris Norvin began studying art at the age of 8 at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. At age 12, Morris began taking figure sculpture classes with Ralph Rosenthal at the Museum of Fine Arts. He continued throughout high school and then went on to graduate from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts. Today he teaches the very same sculpture classes he took from Ralph as a child.
Morris has worked with a diverse range of materials including metal, wax, clay, wood, plasticine, paper, glass and polymers. His preferred method is welded steel incorporating found, functional objects which he terms"Junk Art." He takes pride in using the objects as he finds them with little if any manipulation. Each piece will someday be the perfect part of a particular sculpture. A planing tool might become a high heel or a gear chain could end up being a tail. Each piece has a specific purpose different from its original function. His work is mainly figurative and somewhat anatomical.

"David Dowling was raised and influenced by mechanical wolves and imaginary friends in the developing semi-rural landscape of the Hudson Valley. The tense dialog between commercialized urbanization and the natural processes he observed as an incubating egg have led him to create a body of work that seeks to reconcile the progressive with the primitive through explorations of craft, design, and vernacular technology. He enjoys overcast days, corroded metal, good food and preparing for the apocalypse. He is convinced that in preparing for the apocalypse, we can learn how to avert it.
David received his BFA from the SMFA/Tufts University in 2005 and is considering one day finishing his MArch."
